...MGT/312 Functions of Management Paper November 3, 2014 Homero Martinez In the early 1900s there was a director of a coal mine named Henri Fayol who wrote a book about management, in which he set forth to discuss his five distinctive functions of managing. The book, “Administration Industrielle et Generale,” detailed the original management functions. From these original details, the process school of management was born. Management courses still use Fayol’s ideas to teach management to business students. ‘Fayol originally set forth five management functions, but management book authors have condensed them to four: planning, organizing, leading and controlling. The fifth function was staffing.’ (Norman, 2014). The four functions of management that we use today are Planning, Organizing, Leading and Controlling, minus the emphasis on staffing. Planning is the first managerial function; in this step a manager would create a comprehensive action plan with end goals in mind. the second step is organizing, in which the manager will organize employee resources, such as schedules and shifts. Directing, or Leading is the third step, this includes, managing tasks such as communicating, encouraging and reassuring employees or team members to complete goals. Lastly, we have Controlling, this is the final step and deals with monitoring the performance of the organization to ensure the ultimate goals are being met. In this the final data is gathered that will then indicate to the manager...

...setting practice. Companies connect with their personnel and give confidence to their employees across the business to focus and effectively achieve these goals with one another by setting goals. Strong goal placement and visibility allows for faster implementation of company strategy by allowing management to assign the proper assets across numerous projects. Managers can direct their workforce on the company’s most important goals and diminish task repetitiveness amongst their group while employees have a better perceptive of how their efforts function within the business goals. Allstate’s process allows its employees to understand the direction of the company and its expectations of its employees. It covers four motivational factors of goal setting. The first is the succession programming which allows employees to develop for positions in the future. The second is development which helps the employees to acquire the skills necessary to advance using education, mentoring, training and coaching. The third step is measurement. Allstate take a survey twice a year to determine how the employees feel in the positions the hold, the facilities the work at and the management team they are under. The final step includes accountability and reward. This holds the managers accountably for how well they manage and is directly related to compensation. Anytime money becomes a factor in the amount a person stands to make, their level of attention increases and results in a better...

...A new paradigm in management training Dr J. A. MacAskill, Dean, Dr Muhammad Farmer, Director St James’s Business School, 23 King Street, London SW1Y 6QY INTRODUCTION Graduates, perhaps at no other time in an economic cycle, require the ability to integrate and transfer their conceptual understanding to novel situations in a practical way. The context in which one learns is a formative experience in promoting knowledge transfer. If knowledge is taught in one dimension then it intrinsically places a barrier to adaptive and flexible learning and its application. Alternatively, knowledge acquisition taught in multiple contexts promotes a student’s ability to assimilate, analyse, articulate and implement action plans. This ability to extract knowledge and abstract the concepts and principles relevant to any given situation is undoubtedly promoted through a more flexible multi-context presentation of knowledge. Furthermore, in a management and leadership development context it presents information in a form that will be more relevant to executive work patterns and operational requirements. In an educational sense this requires commonality of experience and the conceptual frameworks of the learners and their tutors to ensure that the ability to move easily between the cognitive elements being described and the desired practical outcome is achievable. At the centre of British Institute of Technology and E-commerce (BITE) educational philosophy lies the concept of...

...racticeBriefing Notes: Best Practices in Professional Development Introduction A firm interested in increasing its employees’ skills and competencies while deepening their employees’ commitment to the organization should c onsider three interventions: the nature of the job, formal training and the mentoring/co aching process. This paper on best practices outlines the issues firms fa ce in developing programs in these three areas and disc usses which practices, program designs or methods firms should take up in response to these issues. The Job Research in firms suggests that younger professionals are drawn to two different kinds of firms: the firm with a great reputation in the field, and the smaller, often less reputable, firms that offer younger people a broader range of opportunities. They usually favor the former when they regard their first or secon d job as a way station to a longer-term career in another company or setting and want to garner the “halo” effect of having worked at a great firm. This phenomenon o c curs in other professional services as well. For example, many consultants are happy to go to M cKinsey for their first five years of employment even though the prospect of becoming a partner and then a director are quite limited, and the work itself is extremely taxing. Many firms, however, cannot rely exclusively on the limited supply of skills within the firm to create opportunities for learning and growth. Therefore, these firms must...

...Viren Amin Date: 17th November 2009 From: Jed Hatton Reference: BTEC Group B Subject: How managing the resources of the organisation and effective budgetary control can improve the performance of a business. Introduction: In this report I will be speaking about how managing the resources of an organisation and effective budgetary control can lead to improved performance of a business. Findings/ Main Body: As I have talked about with you before, managing the resources of an organisation and looking closely at its budgetary control is absolutely vital in business. It improves performance over every department and gives the business management team a clear view on where they can expand and develop in the future. Every public limited company that allows people to buy shares within their business must publish their accounts so that investors can see how well they are doing and judge whether or not to buy their shares on the stock exchange. All the top dog companies have a clear view on their resources and budgets; this is evident from Tesco who have lists of all their resources and a clear cash flow all on one financial statement. They made profits of over £2 billion in 2005 and this tells us that managing budgets and resources well really does improve businesses performance. Managing resources of an organisation improves performance as it gives more cash flow, providing...

...Executive Summary Men and women are entering the labor force in equal numbers but the majority of top management positions still belong to men. More women than ever are entering the labor force but the majority of top management positions in almost all countries are primarily held by men. Female managers tend to be concentrated in lower management positions and hold less authority than men. This suggests that something beyond just sex differences in career patterns must be at work to account for the huge difference in the number of men versus women in top management positions. Although women as a whole may place less emphasis on career success than men, there are a considerable amount of women who strive for top management positions and are unable to attain them. In a recent study almost three-fourths of women and two-thirds of men believe that an invisible barrier (a glass ceiling) prevents women from attaining top management positions. In this report we have tried to find out the barriers causing women advancement in organizational top levels referred to as “Glass Ceiling.” We have conducted our research among some of the top level organizations which are United International University (UIU), MERCANTILE BANK Limited (MBL), Islamic Bank Limited (IBL), and Mutual Trust Bank Limited (MTBL). Without their support we couldn’t have completed this report. Here we have conducted research about some of the factors which correspondents have identified as the major factors. The...
